The Zakim is a much more interesting bridge for a City like Boston than what went before it. It was even better when the blue lighting was functioning. Even so, it is worth a visit especially if you go over to the park opposite the Museum of Science, where you can get great photo angles as well as enjoy the... More

The look of this bridge is very unique and I like that it has become an landmark for Boston. Several television shows I watch take place in Boston and they frequently show shots of this bridge. When I was living outside of Mass, it was a nice reminder of home. More

What can I say about this beautiful bridge, it is beautiful. Leonard Zakim would be proud. It is much better to look at than the old green elevated highway. More

A bit too much. A quieter bridge would have been nicer. But many people really like it. More
